Making your own sprouts requires very little special equipment, no soil and no sunlight. The sprouting process takes only a few days, which greatly increases vitamin and mineral availability.

The riboflavin and niacin content -- both B vitamins -- also increases by about 370 and 200 percent, respectively.
